Our Verdict
LG QNED85
TCL QM7K
The TCL QM7K is much better than the LG QNED85. The TCL delivers much better dark room performance, with deeper, more uniform blacks and less noticeable haloing around bright parts of the scene. The TCL also gets much brighter, so small specular highlight details are much brighter and more impactful in HDR. Finally, the TCL is better for gaming, as it supports a much higher refresh rate.
